Autumn and Winter Holidays Challenge - Halloween

Yey, I will start an another challenge and I do hope that you will like this one too. Oana, a dear fellow blogger thought that it would be to dull without a group collaboration. She was right, we need these kind of challenges. I myself come out of my comfort zone and try different kind of designs that is not my style and I would never wear it. This is one of it, I hate skulls and I rejected the idea to put such kind of nail art on my nails, and now look at me...I have skulls on my nails for this Halloween challenge, and I really like it.

I received these stickers from the Born Pretty Store and I found them quite creepy, I never thought that I would wear them. But than, an idea came to my mind to make a skull and rose combination on my nails. I really do hope that you will like the outcome of it.

I used for the base a polish called BYS- Scented Bright Orange, I received from the lovely Kinga. It supposed to be orange scented, but I didn't smell anything, although I absolutely love this fiery orange with the fantastic golden shimmer. On two of my nails I painted with acrylic colors the roses, they came out very subtle and added the skull decals. On the other nails I made a black, orange gradient.

How do you like it?

Even if we don't celebrate Halloween in our country, we sculpted a pumpkin for decoration. This year it really came out great, don't you think?

On the bellow seen picture you can see the other themes for this great challenge. I am very anxious about this one, some of the themes will push me to my limits :)

Guest nails

Hello lovely ladies, how was your weekend?

Today I am going to show you the nails of my sister in law, she was at a professional manicurist and made some almond pink gel nails and she wanted something simple and special on it. It is the first time that I painted on gel nails and I have to tell you it was a lot of fun. I added the blue polish from Catrice - C04 Entering Atlantis and some elegant rhinestones. I really loved the final result. What do you think about it?

Have a great day and thank you for stopping by!

Alphabet nail art challenge - Letter Z

We  arrived to the end of the alphabet challenge. I really wanted to make for each letter something special, but my time management is very poor and that is why I missed some letters, but I really do hope that you enjoyed what I've created until now. For me it was fun and I will miss my Sunday posts, but, I hope that the group will come up with some new ideas soon. For letter Z, I choose to make a ZEBRA pattern.I used two polishes, one that is quite old, I bought it in Hungary from about 2 years ago, it is called Lovely Color Mania (166) which is a bright pink with light blue reflections and the other polish is Cream Puff - Tip Top Nails. The zebra pattern is painted with black acrylic color.

Let's see what the other girls made with this letter:

Mosaic accent nail

Hello dear readers.

As you can see I didn't get bored to use pink polishes. I have a few in my collection that are new or they are old and after one manicure I put them away and never used them again, so I am really glad that this month I could bring out from my stash these beauties. This time I put to work four of my pink polishes: Cien - Sugar Rose, SinfulColors - Forget Now, Golden Rose Paris Magic 344 and Yves Rocher Rose Pastel - R20.

The accent nail is what draws the attention in this mani. First I painted the mosaic nail art with a black acrylic paint and after it I added different kind of pink polishes in it. I finished my work with a Rimmel top coat.

I enjoyed to have this beautiful candy like color on my nails by Cien, it is truly a beautiful pink shade. This is my absolute favorite one from this brand.

I am going to finish my post with some pictures I made in the weekend at a pet zoo near to my town called Moara de Vant (Windmill). We spent a few hours in this amazing place that brings me calm and relaxation!Maybe the last sunny day from this month!

The trees have amazing colors!

Even the deer loved my nails :))

But the raccoon was a little bit confused about it :))

I hope you enjoyed this mixed post and pictures. Have a fantastic day and thank you for stopping by!

Alphabet nail art challenge - Letter Y

I've missed some letters because the lack of time, but here we are at ugly letter Y and my inspiration was equal to zero for this one, until I made a color swirl manicure, like I saw by Sveta Senders. Of course I used just pink polishes, this time too and after I finished the mani, my daughter told me that it looks like a mix of strawberry yogurt, so this is my YOGURT nail art :))

I used three polishes: Astor Satin Angel for the base and Gabrini 389, Golden Rose matte 01 for the mixture.

I am super curious what the other girls made for this letter.

Match the dress - Concurs Nail Art

Hello lovely ladies.

Today I am celebrating my birthday and I wanted to show you my manicure for this occasion. 

I made a matching manicure for an outfit I saw on Pinterest, I hope you like the results.

I used the below seen polishes and I painted the roses with acrylic colors.

I really do love the final result and the color combination. 
For this occasion I have a contest, but again it is just for my Romanian readers. I hope that soon I can have an international giveaway too for all my followers!

Thank you for all your fantastic comments! 

Anul acesta in septembrie blogul Colour Your Life a implinit 3 ani, iar azi imi serbez ziua de nastere. Cu aceasta ocazie m-am gandit sa organizez un concurs de nail art. Sper sa va placa idea, premiile si sa participati in numar cat mai mare.

Tema concursului: MATCH THE DRESS

Trebuie sa creati o manichiura care sa semene cu o tinuta din garderoba voastra sau puteti gasii imagini pe internet cu orice outfit care va place. Idea este ca manichiura sa semene cu modelul tinutei! Ca si exemplu vedeti lucrarea mea de mai sus.

Reguli:

1. Puteti participa doar cu o singura manichiura, fiecare persoana are dreptul la o inscriere.

2. Puteti sa stampilati, sa pictati sau sa folositi stickere pentru a crea manichiura. Nu accept manichiuri facute la salon!

3. Fiecare participanta imi va trimite minim trei fotografii cu manichiura realizata, pe e-mailul manases.andrea@gmail.com

      1. una sa contina pe langa manichiura (sau tinuta in mana) o hartie pe care 

          scrie MATCH THE DRESS, COLOUR YOUR LIFE, 

      2. un close-up ca sa pot vedea cat mai in detaliu manichiura, 

      3. una langa tinuta sau fotografia tinutei de care ati fost inspirata. 

Descrieti in cateva cuvinte lucrarea voastra (ce oje, tehnica ati folosit etc.).

Vor fii acceptate doar fotografiile care sunt clare, in care se vede perfect manichiura!

         

4. Pe langa realizarea manichiurii, trebuie sa respectati si alte doua reguli : 

           Like pe Facebook a paginii Colour Your Life 

          Share pe Facebook a acestui concurs. Imaginea concursului o gasiti aici. 
          (Va rog mult sa imi trimiteti prin mail si linkul share-ului. Multumesc.)

Vor fi doua castigatoare. Prima manichiura castigatoare va fi aleasa de mine iar a doua va fi aleasa de catre voi, prin voturi. Voi afisa fotografiile pe pagina de Facebook Colour Your Life si timp de doua zile oricine poate sa le voteze. Manichiura cu cea mai multe voturi va fi cea castigatoare.

Concursul tine din 16 octombrie 2014 pana pe 31 octombrie 2014. Voi afisa castigatoarea aleasa de mine aici, la aceasta postare in data de 4 noiembrie 2014 si in acelasi zi voi incarca restul manichiurilor pe pagina de Facebook Colour Your Life. Votarea va fii posibila timp de doua zile si in data de 6 noiembrie 2014 vom afla cea dea doua castigatoare.

Va invit sa participati chiar daca sunteti incepatoare, orice manichiura poate castiga! 

Premiile: 

Premiul 1: trei oje (beauty UK Neon Blue, Modelite - F25 si L55), o pila Cosmelys, micro beads negru argintiu caviar, strasuri autoadezive galbene de diferite marimi, un colier si diferite mostre cu crema de fata
